Although I selected this hotel mainly because it had rooms available when others didn't, it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip. The room was fairly spacious and very comfortable, with a fabulous view of Skiddaw. The bathroom was large and modern, with a big tub for soaking sore muscles, as well as a shower. The... more

What a brilliant weekend in the company of Malcolm and Jennifer. Spotless rooms - esp the very large family room we shared with our 2 kids - and lovely breakfasts. Our hosts could not do enough to help us - including packed lunches ready for our walk on the Saturday and sorting out Keswick launch tickets. We are already planning... more

We stayed for a mid-week break at the Lairbeck and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The owners were exactly what I think small hotels are all about; enthusiastic to make our stay enjoyable, helpful, friendly and personable.

Special praise for... more

This hotel is on the outskirts of Keswick town centre, but it is easy to walk to the centre if you want too. It is a lovely small hotel with very welcoming owners - Jennifer and Malcolm.
